Combine string and int in a GUI text?

[nypraise]

How do I combine a string and int in a GUI text? Right now I have an int that changes value when player collides with coin. I have converted the variable toString and now it shoes the number. But I want it to show a text before the number. Is there some way I can have the text "Sum : variablename" like I would have if I coded it by hand?

GUI Int Label allows a Prefix text before the value.

Thank you, but it still only show the number. First I "Int Add", Then I "GUILayout Int Label" and write the prefix and assign the int variable. Then I convert it to string, and then set it to GUI Text. I tried without converting to string, but GUI Text won´t find the variable if it is not a string. What am I doing wrong here?

Why not just use GUI Int Label instead of all that converting stuff? Use it in place of GUI Text.

But how do I assign it to the GUI element I want to use? In GUI Text I just drag and drop. How does it work with the GUI Int Label?

Do I use PlayMakerGUI or can I use a GUI already made with Unity?

What exactly are you trying to do? I don't fully understand your questions.

I have this GUI I made in Unity called GUI_SUM. When I set the gui text I can "Specify Game Object" and drag/drop the GUI_SUM to the Set GUI Text action. When I use GUILayout Int Label I can spesify the game object, so how do I assign (tell what gui element to change) it to GUI_SUM. So that when ever the variable I have defined in GUILayout Int Label with the prefix will be shown where GUI_SUM is placed in the editor.

Or do I have to create a new GUI element to show the int when using Playmaker?

Ps. I made the GUI_SUM etc. before I started using Playmaker.

Hi,

 I am not too sure what is at stake here neither, if you could share the code or explain with a use case that could help us pointing you in the right direction.

 You can certainly modify GUI_SUM to expose a public variable which would be the value you want playmaker to inject, then you use "Set property" action and target your GUI_Component and set that public variable.

bye,
